(Updated) Former teacher arrested for alleged indecency with a child in Dallas ISD restroom

Former Dallas ISD teacher Enio Cardoso Wissel was arrested for alleged indecency with a child on Friday, according to court records.

Wissel, 46, last worked as a fine arts teacher at Wheatley and Frazier elementary schools, according to a May employee roster. He was hired in DISD in August 2011 and was terminated in March, according to a DISD official.

A phone number listed for Wissel is not accepting incoming calls. He posted a $25,000 bond on Friday and was released from jail.

According to an arrest warrant issued Wednesday, an 8-year-old boy said that while he was using the restroom in an art room at Frazier Elementary, Wissel came into the restroom. He said that the teacher touched his “private part” and told him he would hurt him real bad if he told anyone. The boy was interviewed in March, and the offense allegedly occurred between Jan. 1 and March 19.
